Learn How To Exchange a Kohl’s Gift Card for Cash in Minutes

Did you get another gift card for your birthday and don’t know what to use it on? Are you tempted to exchange your Kohl’s gift card for cash and spend your money on something else? DoNotPay will provide you with a guide on how to best use your gift card and the remaining balance!

What You Should Know About Kohl’s Gift Cards

If you received a Kohl’s gift card as a present, you might want to learn more about it. While your card cannot expire and you can use it in any of the Kohl’s stores, here is what you cannot do:

  • Reload it
  • Combine the gift card with discounts or coupons
  • Use the gift card for the purchase of other gift cards
  • Replace it without proof of purchase if you lose or damage your gift card

What Can You Do With Kohl’s Gift Cards?

If you have some money left on your Kohl’s gift card, you might want to consider what your next step will be. Here are your options:

  • Spend the remaining amount—This could be tricky if the leftover balance is only a few dollars or you don’t need anything else from the store
  • Sell the gift card—You can sell the used gift card to someone you know. This could also be difficult depending on the remaining balance
  • Find a gift card exchange kiosk in your area—If you choose this option, you will get only 80% of the remaining balance
  • Give your gift card to someone—If a friend or a family member might find that gift card useful, you can always give it to them
  • Exchange it for another gift card—You can trade your used gift card for another one online. This is fairly difficult to do because your balance should match the other card’s
  • Use DoNotPay to get cash back from your Kohl’s gift card—If you have only a few bucks left on your card, we will help you get them back

Can You Exchange a Kohl’s Gift Card for Cash?

Kohl’s officially doesn't let you exchange your gift card for cash. This doesn’t mean it is impossible to get the remaining amount back.
